Abstract
For f and g polynomials in p variables, we relate the special value at a non-positive integer s=−N, obtained by analytic continuation of the Dirichlet series ζ(s;f,g)=k1=0∑∞...kp=0∑∞g(k1,...,kp)f(k1,...,kp)−s (\re(s)≫0), to special values of zeta integrals Z(s;f,g)=∫x∈[0,∞)pg(x)f(x)−sdx (\re(s)≫0). We prove a simple relation between ζ(−N;f,g) and Z(−N;fa,ga), where for a∈\Cp, fa(x) is the shifted polynomial fa(x)=f(a+x). By direct calculation we prove the product rule for zeta integrals at s=0, degree(fh)⋅Z(0;fh,g)=degree(f)⋅Z(0;f,g)+degree(h)⋅Z(0;h,g), and deduce the corresponding rule for Dirichlet series at s=0, degree(fh)⋅ζ(0;fh,g)=degree(f)⋅ζ(0;f,g)+degree(h)⋅ζ(0;h,g). This last formula generalizes work of Shintani and Chen-Eie.
